Awesome comprehensive childcare! I came to Little Learners Academy after have a bad experience at…read moreanother preschool. I was distraught and needed to find a new preschool ASAP. From the first phone converstation, I was put at ease by the kind and polite teacher who answered. Then I did a tour with Mrs. Maria and Shazna where I explained my experience and they were so understanding and relieved all my worries by actually explaining their policies and how consistently every employee follows said policies, which was one of my biggest concerns. These women were professional and straight forward which I greatly appreciated. I like that enrollment includes weekly music lessons, annual performances, all kids bring their own labeled water cups, breakfast, lunch and snacks are included, and kids can bring lunch boxes from home if they want. They also have an app that, among other things, they use to disperse their weekly menus, send photos and videos weekly, communicate with parents, pay tuition, and disclose potty accidents as they occur. The application was 6 downloadable pdf forms and a 10 page parent handbook that plainly states their policies and only required signatures on the last 2 pages. They also offer optional dance, soccer, and young ninja programs that are sold seperatly and occur on the premises during regular hours, so no additional transportation is requirted and the kids are never distracted by their parents presence. It's been 4 months and I haven't had a single problem since. My son has made friends and become noticeably confident. He loves the optional Hip Hop dance classes and the Young Ninjas classes! He doesn't cry at drop off. He confidently walks striaght to Mrs. Maria classroom, usually without even syaing goodbye to me. This preschool is also the best priced establishiment I found in the Valley... even less expensive than the home childcare we was in for over 2 years and way less than the previously mentioned BAD preschool we had tried. Mrs, Maria has been a pleasure to work with and I couldn't say enough great things about this place. Please, do not hesitate to take a tour and see for yourself! ... Oh and we LOVE the seasonal window paint they have at the entrance. My son always gets excited when it changes.

Ms Peggy's Response to my review proves that what I wrote is accurate. Instead of showing any kind…read moreof humility, she has doubled down on gaslighting me. I never stated anything about whether your facility was is compliance with state licensing regulations, which are the bare minimum requirments for all licensed child care facilities and nothing to be bragging about. You say things like that your policies are "clearly communicated," with no such explanation of what you mean, when I provided factual details and pages of "critical context." You have now accussed me of "repeated concerns regarding hostile communication and ongoing disruptive interactions with staff." For the prospective families reading this, I implore you, Ms. Peggy, to define what your definitions of "hostile communication" and "ongoing disruptive interactions" and "combative" are. I also give you permission to state what dates and claims about me you are even referring to, but make sure to to include "critical context" without being "inaccurate" or "misleading" when doing so. Parents need to be aware that you were never around during the incidents I described, so you have no basis for knowing whether anything I described was inaccurate. I asked a lot of questions that your staff didn't like and 1st I was called "rude" for it and now that I documented my experiences, you are trying to label me "hostile." Shame on you. This is basic mean girl bullying and the wrong way to respond to a review because it is not 5 stars.

I have nothing but incredible things to say about Little Acorns Grow! As a first time mom I toured…read more11 daycares and interviewed 6 nannies in the area and ultimately decided to send my 5 month old to LAG with zero regrets. The teachers in the infant room were some of the most warm, welcoming, and wonderful women I know. I genuinely felt like they loved my daughter and knowing she was in such caring hands every day meant so much to me. When picking a daycare you can go somewhere that is simply just going to keep your child's needs met, or you can go somewhere that your child can actually grow. The latter is LAG. There were specific times for activities, music class, snack time, outside time, etc. Even at a young age I noticed the difference in my daughter after her being at LAG. The facility itself is so well-kept. The classrooms are clean, not overwhelming with too many toys or screens or colors, and they have a beautiful outdoor area as well. We unfortunately had to withdraw our daughter from LAG recently because we are relocating to a new area and trust me when I say it was the hardest and saddest decision to make. LAG is such a special place and we feel so lucky our daughter got to attend here.

At first, I thought the parking lot was plain, but as soon as I stepped inside, it was a whole different world! Definetly worth to visit on a tour. I absolutely loved the play yard. They have two main outdoor areas: one for the little kids and another for the older ones. Plus, they have a garden where they plant vegetables and strawberries, and there's plenty of shade everywhere. It's truly a lovely space. The outdoor play area immediately made me feel happy, and I knew this was the place I wanted my kids to be. My daughter attended from ages 2 to 4, and now my son has started at 2 years old. LAC also has an infant center, which looks wonderful! I seen parents taking off their shoes in the infant center, keeping it extra clean! Last year, they did a bunch of new updates in all classrooms and bathrooms. The classrooms are nice and well-maintained. I especially loved Ms. Priscilla, Ms. Joan, and Mrs. Shannon. And if you need anything, ask for Leilany in the office, she's super nice and always helpful. I highly recommend Little Acorns Grow to any parent looking for a nice, clean, beautiful and outdoorsy daycare!

Since going, his speech has definitely improved and I even witnessed him trying to make friends! One of the reasons why I was so quick to choose Cordcare after touring many daycares, is because Connie is very thorough and organized, as well as a natural caregiver. I felt like I could trust her with my babies immediately. Every day daycare is attended, they are sent home with a report of what they ate, when/ how often they were changed or went potty, when they took a nap and woke up, as well as any concerns or notes of anything they're running low on that you need to bring in (aka wipes, diapers, or formula- if used). Connie also always sends me a text if she has any concerns she thinks I should know about. I'm so grateful that they care for my boys like their own.. they even had a little birthday celebration for my youngest's 1st birthday. It was so sweet of them.. Some days, my 2 year old just runs in there excitedly! That speaks volumes.

The teachers are dedicated professionals who go above and beyond to ensure that each child is given the attention and guidance they need to excel academically. The curriculum is robust, challenging, and engaging, fostering a love of learning in students. The school also places a strong emphasis on holistic development, encouraging students to participate in a variety of extracurricular activities. This has greatly helped my child in developing leadership skills and discovering new interests. The school's commitment to creating a safe and inclusive environment is commendable. The administration is responsive and takes parents' concerns seriously, which is reassuring. Overall, I believe this school has played a pivotal role in shaping my child's knowledge, skills, and character. I highly recommend it to any parent seeking a well-rounded education for their child. By far the best decision my husband and I made.

Overall, I'd say this is a great Montessori school, with great space for little ones to play and learn. our experience with staff and teachers was good. I'd just recommend a little more trainings on child development issues for the teachers and staff that could help them further with understanding children's behavior and emotional functioning but otherwise the teachers are professional and adequate with their teaching skills.

Dali is warm, loving, highly experienced, and cares deeply about children and their families. I felt so comfortable leaving our baby with Dali each morning and when we requested photos or updates on how she was doing Dali would promptly text us. It is difficult to find high quality childcare and I was very impressed with the calm and family like atmosphere Dali has cultivated. She keeps the environment and materials exceptionally clean.

The staff overall communicate with parents regularly, taking the guesswork out of how my little one's day went. They are also easily available via phone and email. AAKP truly cares about the kids and give them a good foundation. My little one just blossomed while he was there! The facilities are nice, the kids have plenty of things to play with. They do artwork, story time, etc. Summer camp is so fun with outside services and water play days (fyi, summer camp is a small extra fee to help offset these extras). I even got the chance to volunteer to do a music class for the kids over Summer, which I really enjoyed. AAKP also made upgrades to the playground area to smooth out the ground, making it much safer. I highly recommend AAKP!
